Every year, there are thousands of people diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome. They experience symptoms such as tingling, numbness, burning, and pain in parts of the hands and wrists. In some cases, they even have a decreased ability to grasp things properly. Surgery and anesthesia are common medical approaches prescribed when treating carpal tunnel syndrome. This approach is not only expensive and risky to overall health, but surgical approaches for carpal tunnel syndrome generally focus on just one part of the disorder, the median nerve. With the “carpal tunnel release” surgery, the goal is to take pressure off the irritated median nerve. However, it is fairly common for carpal tunnel syndrome cases to have the symptoms return within as little as 2 years after surgery.
